Bears List D'Andre Swift Questionable as Ben Johnson Signals 'Hot Hand' Backfield

Rookie Kyle Monangai is positioned for carries after his 176-yard fill-in performance.

Overview

  • D'Andre Swift missed Friday's practice for a personal reason not related to injury and is officially questionable to face the Giants.
  • Swift was limited Wednesday and a full participant Thursday, saying he expected to play before his unexpected Friday absence.
  • Head coach Ben Johnson said the team could start by alternating series and then ride the running back with the hot hand.
  • Kyle Monangai, who rushed 26 times for 176 yards in Week 9, practiced fully late in the week and is ready if called upon.
  • The Bears can finalize Swift's status about 90 minutes before kickoff, with Roschon Johnson available and potential depth moves possible.
